Quantitative modeling of nanoplastic accumulation from single-use water bottles: exposure scenarios and tissue concentration estimates

Author(s): Sajedi S; An C;

The widespread use of single-use plastic (SUP) water bottles has raised growing concerns about chronic human exposure to nanoplastics (NPs). This study presents a quantitative assessment of NP accumulation in human tissues resulting from the long-term consumption of SUP water bottles. Using survey-derived consumption data and the Human Exposure and Absorp ...

Nature vs nurture of glucose homeostasis trajectories in children from the ALSPAC study

Author(s): Gamache I; Fagbemi K; Harnois-Leblanc S; Greenwood CMT; Henderson M; Van Hulst A; Timpson NJ; Manousaki D;

Aims/hypothesis: Dysglycaemia in youth results from complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors, yet their individual and combined contributions remain unclear. We aimed to: (1) evaluate the predictive performance of polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for glycaemic traits from childh ...

Endangered species laws and the inclusion of Indigenous knowledges and sciences in risk assessments

Author(s): Grimm J; Soares BE; Zanjani LV; Ballard M; Chiblow S; Andrade RS; Duncan AT; Fraser DJ; Mandrak NE; Bernos TA;

Indigenous Peoples actively manage or have tenure rights over lands where many rare and valued species occur. To meet national and global conservation targets, it is important to meaningfully consider Indigenous knowledges and rights in endangered species laws. We examined whether the Canadian Sp ...

Biological sex and bilingualism: Its impact on risk and resilience for dementia

Author(s): Calvo N; Phillips N; Bialystok E; Einstein G;

Introduction: The relationship between biological sex, considered a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), and bilingualism, a resilience factor, is unclear. We assessed this relationship in 335 individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in a Canadian cohort. Methods: We used univariate analysis and structural equation modelling to study the ...

Contextual use of male-male social information by Trinidadian guppies

Author(s): Brusseau AJP; Dumaresq-Synnott F; Morris J; Nagl AC; Ramnarine IW; Crane AL; Brown GE;

Decision-making among prey often involves balancing fitness-related activities, such as foraging and mating, with the need to avoid predation. These trade-offs may be influenced by sex, especially among sexually dimorphic species where males and females face different selection pressures. Consistent with the 'Distracted Male Hypothesis', male Trin ...

From pollution barriers to health buffers: Rethinking building airtightness under climate variability

Author(s): Fu N; Zhang R; Haghighat F; Kumar P; Cao SJ;

Climate change is reshaping indoor-outdoor pollution dynamics, yet current building standards rarely reflect this shift. In rapidly urbanizing regions with high ambient PM2.5 levels, building airtightness offers an underutilized strategy to mitigate indoor exposure and associated health burdens. An analysis of 36 major Chinese cities across five climate z ...
